Travis County Commissioners Court

October 25, 2005
Item 30

View captioned video.

30 is to approve of 78 interlocal agreements and 163 contracts with various agencies and contractors. The suggestion this morning was to pull out those dealing with the medical examiner's office for further review at an additional time. At another time. And what the other set?
>> and there was one other. One doctor no longer works here at Travis County, so that one would not be renewed. And I showed cyd where that is also located on her sheet. There are no other issues I had with health and human services or any of the other tso, yada yada yada, so I would move to all of them except the autopsy renewals and the contract with that one doctor.
>> can I say just one thing? Cyd, on the long list I noticed that the temporary nurses out of the sheriff's department, is that -- is that going to be altered at all because of what we've done with hiring? With staffing?
>> it might. Did y'all hire nurses?
>> not yet.
>> we've hired some.
>> to me I think it's a backup contract, Gerald, the same kind of thing with juvenile court. It just gives them the ability to do things subject to availability and dollars in a budget. So clearly you wouldn't be double hiring, but it a backup contract because they run into issues.
>> yeah. And I would agree with Commissioner Sonleitner. If you look at the amounts we spend I think that backs it up.
>> any more discussion? All in favor? Show Commissioners Sonleitner, dougherty, yours triewl hi voting in favor. Commissioner Davis abstaining and Commissioner Gomez absent for the rest of the afternoon.
